Chocolate Bark With Walnuts and Dried Cherries

Lindt Chocolate Bark with Walnuts and Dried Cherries

I didn't have dried cherries, they are hard to come by in Honduras so I used dried cranberries. The recipe turned out great! The Lindt Chocolate Bars are like gold here, hard to find and very pricey, so I used regular chocolate instead.

This is just one of the many fruit and nut combinations that make bark one of the most popular chocolate treats ever created.
